MAQUOKETA, Iowa -- Authorities said four people are dead and a triple-homicide investigation is underway at Maquoketa Caves State Park today.
Mike Krapfl, special agent in charge with the Iowa Division of Criminal Investigation, said members of the Jackson County Sheriff's Department responded at 6:23 a.m. to reports of gunshots at the park's campground.
A DCI press release states that Jackson County deputies and the state agency were notified at that time of a triple homicide.
Law enforcement officials located three people dead at the scene, though Krapfl could not confirm their cause of death. He said officials still were working to identify the individuals.

Guns are allowed in Indiana state parks. Several have shooting ranges within the park
Concealed means concealed. Carry everywhere.
Correct, in Iowa. No firearms or weapons are permitted other than limited use of bow fishing for rough fish.
Maquoketa Caves is a neat park with massive caves you can walk through. But no place is immune from the acts of crazy people.
A buddy of mine used to be Superintendent at Babler State Park outside of Chesterfield, MO (think STL burbs).
He ran that park for ~15 years and not one summer went by without some drunken hillbillies getting into a gunfight in the campground.

Ok, I thought he was making a blanket statement about all National and State parks.
Ah. No I think he was just making a glib hyperbolic statement.
Initial report is that the presumed shooter is an early 20s male from Nebraska.
Another day, another thug, another mass murder.
Shooter committed suicide.

Geez, dude...your hair would have grown back.
Four dead, triple homicide. Sounds like democrat math.
The second ammendment applies to everyone, everywhere.
I grew up in South Dakota. I’m old enough to remember the 1973 Gitchie Manitou Iowa State Park murders. The killers were brothers from Sioux Falls.
“Initial report is that the presumed shooter is an early 20s male from Nebraska.”
There’s obviously much confusion now that Roe v. Wade has been overturned.
People now think they have to travel from Nebraska to Iowa to kill someone...fetus or not!
That or a nascent AI. MSN articles are written by AI, not sure of this site.
From the looks of him he looks like another INCEL loser and not a thug
Googled that. If there was ever a case for the DP this is it. Why the heck should those people be alive?
An eye for an eye.
